Viola Davis “lost it” after receiving the news her Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom co-star Chadwick Boseman had died.The actor, who lost his battle with cancer in August (202020), filmed the Netflix movie, about the iconic African-American blues singer, with Davis in the summer of 2019.Speaking on Britain’s The Graham Norton Show, the actress paid tribute to her late co-star, admitting she was “so surprised” by the tragic news as she was in the dark about his illness.“When I found out he was gone, I lost it,” she said. “I saw him thin and tired, but there are a lot of thin, tired actors in our business – it’s an exhausting profession.“But I cannot see his life as tragic because of his integrity and authenticity – he had those in great supply,”.
